Ingredients
Butter (softened) - 120 Grams.
caster Sugar - 3/4 Cup

Eggs - 2

All Purpose flour - 1 cup

Baking Powder - 1/2 teaspoon

Vanilla Essence - 1 teaspoon

Milk - 5 Tablespoons
Red food colour - as per require

Procedure

First of all Preheat oven at 180 degree centigrade.

Now take a Big Bowl and Beat butter and sugar till it gets fluffy. Add eggs one at a time and beat it. It should become very fluffy. You can use hand mixer or a blender for this. Now at another side mix vanilla and milk. Sift APF and Baking Powder. Add vanilla and milk and beat it for a minute. Now add flour and mix it properly. No lumps should form. Your batter is ready now.

For the heart shape, pour approximately 1½ cups of the batter into a smaller bowl. Keep remaining batter in airtight container. Now add 3-4 drops of red colour and mix it. Repeat this till you get the perfect colour of heart. Make sure it is slightly darker because after baking the colour get reduced. Now pour it in greased baking pan and bake for 15 minutes. Check if the cake is done with knife edge. Allow the cake to cool completely. Place the cake on one tray. And make little heart shape with small heart-shaped cookie cutter. You can draw and cut with knife too.

Now arrange paper cups in a tray. Mark with some pen on each paper cup so that after baking we will remember the correct heart position. Pour 2 tablespoon of remaining batter in each cup. (approx. 12 cupcakes you will get from this measure.) Place heart in it according to the mark on paper cup. (front of the heartfacing the mark on the paper cup ). Now cover it with a teaspoon of batter. Do it very gently. Bake it in oven for 25 minutes. Remove from oven and allow it to cool for 10 mins.

I didn't get time to decorate it. But please decorate it nicely. And While serving let your sweetheart know from which portion he has to take a bite of cake. So that you can open your heart in front of him.
